Life

A school of music that studies the rhythm of nature, a school of fashion that studies the elegance of the Universe, a school of design that studies the architecture of the ancients, a school of philosophy that studies the time-tested Truth.

Do we already know our course but refuse? "What you are looking forward to has come, but you don't know it."

I think life has a unique way of showing you how to make it to the next level...And if you aren't ready to meet the challenges, then you'll just have to wait until the next life to try again...Who wants it easy..? I don't mind, and I want to work for everything I have, even if it hurts me in the process...

But when you say to "know our course, but refuse" that means that there's something about the life in front of you that you don't like, am I correct..?

lmao....he comes back and still doesn't make sense

every moment in your life that is worthy on note, *good* or *bad*, is but a feather of the wings of the one who embraces you.

we must know suffering and confusion,
that we may recognize reward and clarity.

That being said, if you're in DC, you should be having a ball!

If you're basically asking why does things happen to us that does happen. The answer, I think, is pretty simple.

We are here because God created us and allowed us to be here. Things happen to us based on choices that we and others make. That is if you believe that we have a choice (I don't think we really do).
